Just Say "No" To EmailEmail This EntryPrint This Entry
Posted by Stowe Boyd

After the affairs of the past few days, I have decided to push my ambivalence about email to a new extreme. Therefore, I am launching my Just Say "No" To Email campaign.

Here's a cool blog sticker I made: just say no.bmp


And another: Email blows sticker.bmp

In the spirit of rejecting email, I am posting these links, which will add me to your AIM and Yahoo buddylists. (If anyone has similar scripts for MSN and Jabber, let me know.)

Nice idea... I've added your little blog sticker 'Just say no to email' to my blog gutter, with a link to this story and a rollover tag line crediting you... incidentally, for the international audience, you might wanna have 'IM SI, EMAIL NO!' or something like that ('blows' is pretty culture-specific... perhaps even misunderstandibly rude in some quarters); anyway, just a thought...
